2010 Volkswagen Jetta Drivetrain Service

Your Jetta’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Volkswagen, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Jetta and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2010 Volkswagen Jetta, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Volkswagen's recommendations.

What Are Volkswagen Jetta Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2010 Volkswagen Jetta drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Volkswagen could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Volkswagen Jetta doesn’t drive like it used to.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2010 Volkswagen Jetta? Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.

2010 Volkswagen Jetta Drivetrain Questions

When you have drivetrain problems, you have driving problems. Check out our top 2010 Volkswagen Jetta drivetrain Q&A below, and visit your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care with any drivetrain concerns.

  • How does Volkswagen drivetrain maintenance help save money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • What are the symptoms of a damaged Volkswagen drivetrain system? Your Volkswagen Jetta drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.
  • How often should I come in for Volkswagen Jetta differential service? Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.
  • What causes a Jetta’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? If your Jetta has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.
  • Can you reset your Jetta’s malfunction warning light at home? It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your Jetta, but it's important to resist the urge. The check engine light is designed to warn you of potential problems with your vehicle, and resetting the light without fixing the underlying issue could lead to further damage or safety issues. The best course of action is to bring your Jetta to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for diagnostics and repairs.
  • How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Jetta? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Jetta. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Jetta.
  • Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Jetta? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Jetta’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Jetta forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
